Men's grooming products - facewash, shaving gel etc etc

Options
I'm in need of a few new things, and of course I like the expensive stuff :rolleyes: :D I was just wondering if anybody knows anywhere(maybe online if possible) I can buy this stuff all together for pretty cheap. Currently I buy it in Boots and places like that, and it works out pretty expensive. Here's the things I'm going to buy:-

Facewash(usually buy Nivea stuff)
Pre-shave wash(usually buy FCUK)
Shaving Gel(usually buy Nivea with menthol)
Shampoo(usually buy FCUK detox)

It'd be great if I could buy it all together and save a few pounds. Thanks in advance for any advice/reccomendations :)

    Can't really beat the supermarkets, as buying fro mthe web adds postage which usually makes it more expensive. I stick with Nivea and King of Shaves stuff. The king of shaves stuff seems to last longer if nothing else.

    Sorry can't be more helpful. I would check out thier websites and request free samples as they often send out money off vouchers as well!

    Yeah, I kinda thought I'd have to stick with the supermarkets but thought it was worth a try asking. I'll check around some websites. Many thanks :beer:
  • My advice would be to try using shops other than Boots such as Superdrug, Savers and supermarkets which are often cheaper. Ebay might have the products you are looking for from time to time.

    Stock up when the products you use are on special offer, and get a Boots card if you haven't already got one.

    If you have the time you could write letters or emails to the companies praising their products and they may send you money off coupons and samples as mentioned by marksward.

    Or maybe try some other brands?

  • yup I defo second ebay. Can't beat it especially if you prefer good quality but can't usually afford it, so take second best instead. I regularly by for myself and my partner toiletries off ebay.
